Mainnet launches only when the testnet, the community and legal review are ready. Until then, nothing sent to mainnet endpoints exists, and nothing is for sale.
The testnet is where to build and test everything first. A testnet reset clears accounts and deployed contracts, but contracts in genesis (see Contracts) return at the same addresses.
